Autism Attitude and Everyday Thankful

London Bombings

The crack heads have struck London. I'm not surprised. I'm not appalled. I'm not devastated. This just feels like business as usual. Life will go on in spite of things like this. I just got back from New York City yesterday. We did a bit of traveling on the subways while there. At some point I thought about the possibility of a terrorist attack on the subway. I had basically had two choices. I could live in fear of what might happen constantly looking over my shoulder and being suspicious of every one and everything. Or I could boldly go where ever I needed or wanted to go trusting that God is sovereign over all things. We all have to die sometime. I won't waste the time that I have living in fear.

Yes I said cotton balls. Apparently dropping cotton balls outside of an establishment known to be frequented by black people is a hate crime. And here I thought it was at worst littering.Arrests Made In Mizzou Cotton Ball Incident: 2 Students Suspended After Their ArrestTwo students have been arrested in connection with the incident where cotton balls were left overnight outside the Gaines/Oldham Black Culture Center on the campus of the University of Missouri-Columbia. Very early Friday morning, someone threw cotton balls outside the Culture Center. The offensive act sparked a town hall meeting on the Campus Monday night. At the meeting, students discussed what to do in response to the racist display. Police investigated the incident as a hate crime. What to do about cotton balls on the sidewalk? Trample them into oblivion or pick them up! All that drama over cotton balls. I'm trying to imagine a mind fragile enough to be offended by cotton balls on the sidewalk. I don't have…

Some random dude on Facebook posted this dreck.
"For those of you who take adderall & swear you aren't a meth head." Alongside a photo of models of the molecular structure of crystal meth and the active ingredient in Adderall. A concerned Facebook friend wanted to know if it was true. #nerdspawn to the rescue.
"The two drugs do have similar chemical structures. However, therapeutic doses of Adderall taken under supervision of a medical professional are no comparison to drug addicts abusing crystal meth. Whoever did this needed to spend more time on their organic chemistry and molecular neuropharmacology. People shouldn't try to equate taking Adderall as prescribed with abusing crystal meth. We need less of this kind of foolishness stigmatizing people and preventing them from getting the help they need."
Any questions?
